THE HOBBY GUILD – US B2B Business Development & Retail Partnerships

We are seeking an experienced independent B2B Sales Agent / Business Development Specialist with proven ability to negotiate and secure commercial partnerships. Our immediate goal is to secure our first US retail pilot partners for The Hobby Guild, a new tabletop wargaming marketplace. THIS IS A DIRECT B2B SALES ROLE — NOT software development, SEO, digital marketing or lead-generation-only work. You must be able to identify suitable retailers, reach US business owners, conduct sales calls and video meetings in fluent spoken English, handle objections, negotiate approved terms and progress discussions toward signed agreements. Fluent spoken English and demonstrable B2B sales experience are essential. ABOUT THE HOBBY GUILD The Hobby Guild is a Swiss-based marketplace project in development, preparing for a US launch. Our multi-retailer shopping cart optimizer aims to create additional sales opportunities for independent retailers by considering product availability, total delivered cost, delivery time, number of shipments and customer preferences. Customers will be able to shop from one or multiple participating retailers through a coordinated purchasing experience. Each retailer remains independent, acts as seller and merchant of record for its own orders/sub-orders, and handles its own fulfillment, returns and customer service. The Hobby Guild facilitates the customer experience and coordinates issues when needed. We also plan to acquire demand through partnerships with tabletop wargaming content creators. We have not yet secured our first retailer or established a proven sales history. Applicants must understand early-stage commercial challenges. PHASE 1 – FOUNDING RETAILER & GAMES WORKSHOP CLARIFICATION Maximum potential compensation: USD 2,500 Our initial priority is a credible, established US retailer with an active Games Workshop retailer account, willing to participate in a pilot. This will launch a broader retail network. FOUNDING RETAILER CRITERIA The retailer should: - Operate a credible US retail business with an active Games Workshop retailer account. - Stock a substantial and diverse Warhammer range, including meaningful choices of miniatures, boxed sets and products across multiple armies or game systems. Paints and hobby accessories alone are insufficient. No fixed SKU minimum is imposed. - Maintain real inventory and reliable stock information. - Ship to all 48 contiguous US states and Washington, D.C., on transparent, commercially reasonable terms. - Fulfill orders professionally and handle its own shipping, returns and customer service. - Cooperate with catalogue, inventory and order integration, testing and pilot operations. Retailers of varying sizes qualify based on assortment, availability, reliability and willingness to collaborate. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES - Find, assess and qualify suitable retailers; identify the actual decision-makers. - Conduct personalized outreach, including real telephone calls and relevant follow-ups. - Present approved materials and our recorded platform demonstration. - Personally lead discussions, video meetings, objection handling and negotiations in fluent English. - Seek verifiable written commitment from a qualified founding retailer. - Facilitate the retailer's submission of our approved business model to its Games Workshop representative and follow up on the written clarification. - Work toward an approved, signed pilot agreement once prerequisites are met. - Keep detailed outreach records and provide regular written progress reports. You will manage commercial communications independently. We provide approved materials, handle technical assessments and integration, and retain final approval of all partners and terms. No unauthorized promises or binding commitments may be made on our behalf. GAMES WORKSHOP – WRITTEN CLARIFICATION REQUIRED The interested retailer must accurately submit our actual third-party, multi-retailer marketplace model to Games Workshop. We require an identifiable, sufficiently specific, favorable written response from an appropriately authorized Games Workshop representative or department. It must address the relevant distribution implications of retailers selling through a third-party marketplace, the multi-retailer checkout, who is seller of record, payment arrangements and platform commissions, and applicable product-listing, pricing or other restrictions. Generic answers and verbal assurances are insufficient; we independently assess the authority and scope of any reply. This written clarification is a crucial prerequisite to our decision to incorporate the company and incur major legal, tax and operational expenses.
